Woot on 40mls Kim... Least it's still there! I reckon that Jaz could get much more out herself... So I wouldn't worry about not having any milk at all, If you still want to have a go at BF'ing, go see that LC!
Ange - That story is funny... it's even funnier that I reminded you of it!
Nic - Like Ange, I too notice my boobs don't seem as full either when I'm prettu busy and don't take much time to rest. Even though I know it's hard for you with Nixon! I hope today you have an endless supply againBTW - How sweet is that they are stimulating the breasts when they do that hand thing... kind of reminds me of cats and kittens when they knead the mumma cat!
Saffi - Ro doesn't always scream when she has wind... sometimes she will fuss at the breast and be pulling back at the breast but continue to suck (different to the choking on let down pull back), also I know if she has had a good feed yet she is still unsettled or sucking at her hands that she has wind, because sometimes they get confused by the pain and think they are still hungry or just want some comfort because they are uneasy. If she is giving me heaps of fake smiles, or making the tight o type mouth where it's so tight the skin goes white, I will also burp her... I find that moving her around to burp her in different positions seems to help get the wind up too. Now we aren't as bad with the wind because I have realised that let down happens so fast that it seems to give her wind, so I pull her off the boob often during the feed and spend the time to burp her and we haven't really had any unsettledness due to wind for a while now. I find soon as I burp her after I spot any of her signs, she settles instantly and will let us put her down and she'll fall asleep herself without fuss. Also maybe he possetted last night because he had a pocket of wind under his feed?
